Age to me means nothing. I can't get old; I'm working. I was old when I was twenty-one and out of work. As long as you're working, you stay young. When I'm in front of an audience, all that love and vitality sweeps over me and I forget my age.

By [age] 93, I had shrunk quite a lot. My car was known as the Phantom Cadillac. People would see it whizzing by and they would swear there was no driver.

Critics are eunuchs at a gang bang.

I get up every morning and read the obituary column. If my name's not there, I eat breakfast.

I must be getting absent-minded. Whenever I complain that things aren't what they used to be, I always forget to include myself.

Everyday happiness means you can't wait to come home, because the soup is hot.

At my age flowers scare me.
